ANALYSIS: TJ Friedl has faced a challenging season due to injuries, having two separate stints on the IL. However, since returning to the lineup on May 29, he has performed well with a batting average of .265 and a .991 OPS.
He hit his third home run since coming back last night and is tied for ninth in home runs and second in RBI in baseball during this time.

Since his return, Friedl has been batting first in the lineup against right-handed pitchers, so he should have plenty of plate appearances. With the 17th-highest walk rate in baseball since his return and being tied for the seventh most steals, it looks like he'll have numerous opportunities to score.
As summer approaches, Friedl will benefit even more from playing in one of the most hitter-friendly ballparks in baseball. Therefore, despite his injury history, he's worth considering as an addition in 12+ team formats.
